CarComplaints.com Notes: Yes, the Honda Civic receives a lot of complaints because so many were sold. And sure, car parts only last so long and things eventually break. But it's never good to see this many transmission complaints, especially when the average mileage at failure is just north of 100,000 miles.

Especially when you consider that it's predecessor also has a nasty history with transmission complaints.

Interior fabric falls out from door panel. Seats material is fuzzing and rough. Honda won't honor paint under warranty or Honda care extended warranty.

As the weather gets colder the heater does not warm the floor area of the car to an acceptable temperature. On a drive to work, approximately 25 minutes, my feet freeze. Honda's solution is to put the controls to recirculate, so the air will eventually go to the floor area, however, the windows fog over. Honda suggests constantly changing the controls from heat and dehumidify with air conditioning to recirculate. This can be dangerous, constantly changing controls.
